Thuigh theie Ilya's . , as Usual, a ions-Wet : able Optpo - - - sition last flight at .this Theatre, after the seaotil aet of The Duenna was over, and the half-price %it, sitors appeared, yet we may now congratulate - the public upon an evident appearaneeolcomparativetran: quility. The opponents of the managers were fewer, and they were much less respectable than they have hitherto appeared. Still, however, there were many persons concerned' in the opposition who were ob viously actuated by a feeling of public spirit, and not by that juvenile indiscretioa which is only intent Upon a noisy sport. The chief agents last night seemed to be young men from the city, who, as we Understand, have generally been the most aaive pro knoters of dissension for the last feW nights. The boxes were well attended from the beginning of the Opera, and. the pit, therefore, as usual, was the Only place where the opponents of the Proprietors Ind room for anion.--They devised a new expe dient last night, it Consisted of pretended quarrels, and fight's, and they were carried . On at times during the whole representation of the Farce of 41 - the World's a Stage. A person attempted to speak from the Boxes, hot When the audience were calm enough to hear him, b e had nothing to say. Some of the Placards were Very offensive in their tendency, and such produc tions could not of course come from persons attach ed to dramatic amusement and sensible of their. va lue. That which alludes to the approaching Jubilee, and speaks of " mock Charity," must have issued from a still baser source. The Theatre was cleared soon after tea,. btit not ,_ without a few turbulent cheers, a strain or two of God save the King, and some roarings of intoxica tion. The following are the chief labels, and the mock play bill subjoined was distributed among the Crowd. 'No fighting Tem, Nor prices new. DIALOGUE.

THE LYetvra.—The comedy.entitled Grieving's 4; Folly, written by a Gentleman of Sus - sex named LEiGH, which was brought - forward last season, was represented last night at this Theatre, and well re. ceived. The farce of The Prize followed, and the part of Lenitive was assumed by WRENCH. This atior does not want . spirit and activity, and though lie fell very much below the original representative, he bustled through the character with effect.— KNIGHT was rather more successful in his efforts, end gave the character of.

HINDOO CRLII. CON. and ELOPEMENT. Some time ago a case of seduaion and elopement occurred in a Hindoo family in Calcutta, which though not 'uncommon in the brilliant and more en lightened society of Europe; is rather of unusual oc currence in the dull, insipid routine of Asiatic life, where the fair sex are regarded with inferior con sideration, and secluded from the intercourse of ge neral society. Sunkeree, a blooming young woman, the wife of Ishan Danss, being missed from home early in the morning, and the domestic~ of the family being un able to give any .satisfatiory account of the Lady, apprehensions were, in consequeuce, entertained for her safety. The fond unsuspecting linst)and rea dily supposed that she might have been drowned in the Hoogliley, that she might have fallen into a well, or been devoured by an alligator. A sentiment of jealousy had never, for a moment, har6oured in his bosom, and the whispers of suspicion which had oc signally reached his ear, through the officiousness of friends, served only to increase his love and his confidence; and now, when the beloved objeti was unaccountably absent, his affe6lion still continued to represi every suspicion of her infidelity. The wile had no sooner been missed from home, than it was discovered that all her jewels, and the valuable ornaments of her person, were also gone.— An inquiry was immediately set on foot ; and it was ascertained that early in the morning she had been seen going to the house of a female confidant.— Thither the husband with a party of his friends proceeded wittt all possible dispatch ; but they came too late ; the fair fugitive, borne on the wings of love, had escaped some tune before their arrival, and no certain intertnation could be obtained respeding her movements. During the two following days no account was received respeeting her route, or the place of her concealment ; and ihe husband was left to lameet his loss, under the aggravation of uncer tainty and suspense. At length some information was communicated by a young girl, who undertook to condat the husband to the house where his wife was concealed. The party, as may be supposed was ready in an instant to accompany the girl, who led thim to the house of a Mussulman, where, ac cording to her information, the wife was secreted. It did not appear, however, that she was at that time . concealed there, as, on searching the house, she could not be found; but as the Mussulman, on the first appearance of the husband, ran off, and Some Other circumstances strengthening the suspi cion otThis being concerned in the elopement, Ishan Dauss applied to the Tannah, where, on an exami nation of the suspeaed parties, it was clearly ascer tained, that three women of the neighbourhood, the above Mussulman, and a wealthy Hindoo Sir car, were accessaries to the seduction and elope ment. Three of the parties have been apprehended and confined. No information has yet transpired to lead tO the place - where4he, woman is concealed, a disco Very, that now, as her elopement was a voluntary act, could answer no other purpose than to recover the jewels and ornaments that she•carried off. Sunke r ree is represented as a.perfeet beauty, according to the Hindoo taste. , It is conjectured that some na tive of more weight and opulence than any of those who have yet appeared as parties in the case, was the prime instigator of the seduction and elopement. This instance of conjugal infidelity -has been made much more public'than usual among the Hindoos. Whether similar cases among them are so ,uncom. mon as: some are disposed to believe, we much doUbt ; but if their occurrence is not rare, the know ledge of diem is, in general, very prudently conceal ed as much- as possible. The propensity of giving currency to • the scandal, or of seeking redress in Courts of Law for such domestic calamities, is utterly repugnant to the pra&ice of the Hindoos. THE JUBILEE. The splendid transparencies and illuminations which have been prepared by a great number of re spetiable individuals in all parts of the town, point out the propriety of every person'illurninating on the 25 th 'instant: there cannot be doubt but that the rejoicing, &c. will be general, and that tile illu mination will be the most brilliant ever witnessed in the metropolis. The most alive preparations are making minate the India HouSe, the Bank, the Mansion House, Lloyd's Coffee House, Mer Chant Tailors' Hall, and the other public buildings in the City, except Guildhall. At Winchester the most splendid and extensive preparations are making for the celebration of .the approaching Jubilee. On Wednesday the. High Sheriff of the County ; the County and City Mein bers, the Corporation of Winchester, the Clergy; Gentry; &c. go in procession to the Cathedral,' Where the full service is tb be performed ; in the afternoon a splendid dinner will be given at Sr. John's House, - . whilst the lower classes are regaled throtighont the city from the subscription. raised for that purpose. The debtors in the County Gaol are also expe6ted to be released. In the evening a grand display of tire-works will take place; with the usual accompaniments of illtuninations, transparencies, bonfires, &c. according to the custom of former days. On Thursday morning various country sports will be ex.hibitedi and in the evening a ball will be I. ~. given to the Ladies ; indeed it is thoeglit amusements will be kept up all the mittee has been appointed to Stil;erin! and 'on the ua-. - casino, and from their loyalty, liberaln.?, and abdity,, there is no dolibt but the highest gratification . be afforded the public. It has been unanimously agre , A, by the Diredlora of the Royal Fluspi , tal„at Greenwich, that the day shall be celebrated with every mark of rejoicing.and eonViviality. They intend giving a splendid dinne.r to Admiral Stanhope, all . the Captains of hiS Majes 7 ty's ships in t he River 'Barnes, 'and to the and Genfrjr . Ol - the surrounding neighbourlfood..-- : - Their loyal ,;erier.b'sitis likewise to be eXte.nded wards the,elerks of that noble Institution, who are to be regaled with a sumptuous repast. The Direaors have also exerted their utmost iri behalf of the clerks, whose sAlaties have for many years past remained stationary, and it has been., determined by the Board to embrace the joyftil,oe. casion of the Jubilee to Make some increase to heir • At a triceting of the Mayor aid inhabitants or War Wick, on Friday, several laudable resolution; were agteed to, having fnr their objet the comfort of the poor on the approaching anniver,aiy of his Majesty's accession. A spirited subscription was iminediately Opened; the sum colleacd is to be solly appropriated towards the teliet of the orphan and widow, the aged and helpless, of every oerto minaiion.

ACCOU\IT OF I'HE lUI3ILEit KEPT IN THE 50rH YEAR OF THE AGE OP EDWARD THE THIRD. EDWARD was now In the 50th year of -his age: . and he laid hold of that sera as the occasion of .hiS performing many other popular acls of Government. For he declared in' his Parliament, by Sir Henry Green, that he was resolved to keep it as a jubilee ; and that he had givets,orders to issue out general and special pardons, without paying any fees, for recall' ing all exiles, and setting at liberty all debtors to the Crown, and all prisoners for criminal matters. He further created his third son, Lionel, Deke of Cla- . rence, and his fifth son, Edmund, Earl of Cam bridge. The Parliament on their pats, not to be wanting in gratitude, having obtained their petitions, on the day of their rising presented the King with A duty of twenty-six shillings and eightpence uport every sack of wool for three years, besides continua 7 ing the former duty upon wools, fell 4, and skins.— This year being declared,a year of Jubilee, the Teader is to expe& little buSiness, as it was spent in hunting, throughout ;the . :great foreals of Ert land,. and other . magnificent diversions . ,in which the King laid out art immense sum. But we are not to close the trans actions' of this year before we inform the reader, that it was from the Jubilee then instituted that the fa mous custom took its rise, of our Kings, or their .i'',l moners, washing, feeding, and eloathilig, on Maun day Thursday, as Marry poor people are they are years old." [Extracted from Guthrie's flist. Eng. -VOL 2. Fol, 213.3 MURDER.-4 melancholy occurrence lately took place at the Mermaid, near Yarmouth, in the Isle of \Vight :—Zetween the hours of nine and teri, a poor fellow belonging to. the 79th regiment (who, with a party of . five or .six were stationed on the sea:.; coast), was murdered by a corporal of the Bruns-. wickers, who stabbed him in the middle of the thigh with his sabre, and in less than ten minutes he-ex pired, the femoral -artery being completely pierced. The most wanton cruelty only can account for this diabolical aCt, as the soldier had but that mom ent entered the house, to purcha4e some trivial article for his comrade; nor does it appear that a single svl , table was exchanged between him and• the villain. After haying wounded the poor fellow, he ate tempted to enter the bar, and made several cuts and thrusts at the landlord, who, with his providentially escaped, though there is' no doubt ir was his intention to murder all he could get at. Fit endeavoured to cut the window;shniter in pieCes, to enter the bar, bit was at. last stopped in his career, by the .ostler seizing his sabre. He is at present ; under a 'guard of the -Brunswick corps, and, it is supposed, _will be' conveyed to Winr!lies . - ter gaol. It appears he .was enraged with the land lord, because he would °nor sutler hi m t u ,i- ema i n After nine o'clock in the house. Wh'cn he quitted the premises, it was ,inlagitied .he was gone to ti e barracks, instead of he soon teturtied, and committed the above hotrin .murder. • - Yesterday the Lottery began and finiShed Draw ing, when the Ticket' 2;G18, entitled. to 20,0001. in Class A, and to 20,0p0 in CldsS,D, were be llt Sold in Shares by 81811, at his truly 'fortunate Otfices, follows :—ln Class A„ in 9 quarters, 2 eighths, an d 4 sikteenths ; -mid. in Class .
